Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World

In the games where he appears, Wang Luo, as a member of the Ginkgo Guild, sells supplies to the protagonist at certain fixed locations. However, according to his own slip-ups, he seems to often slack off in the guild and run off to investigate various ruins.

Wang Luo is always slacking and complaining, giving the guild boss a headache.

However, in the game, he guides the protagonist to obtain various "plates," attempting to realize his ambitions, only to be defeated and broken by the protagonist.

Guangtai recognized the attribute of that plate. The deep crimson plate is the Dragon Plate!

"What, do you recognize this plate?" Wang Luo wondered, staring at the changes in Guangtai's expression.

He had felt all along that he should have met Guangtai somewhere, but he couldn't remember no matter what, and this feeling grew stronger over time.

In the past, only the right people could obtain the "plates," but in this era, plates are often taken by strange individuals and change hands frequently, and the number of plates is also different from the past.

It is said that similar plates appear in every region, and occasionally, the same plates are dug up in the underground caves of the Sinnoh region.

Compared to Wang Luo's thoughts, Guangtai thought of something else.

In the game, the Dragon Plate is located in Celestic Town in the Sinnoh region, right behind the large statues of Dialga and Palkia on the outskirts, truly "able to be picked up by just wandering around!"

The original owner naturally wouldn't know this, so he never went looking under that statue. Guangtai didn't know if the Celestic Town in this world actually had the Dragon Plate, but he didn't expect to see another one here.

Wait, rather than saying this is a Sinnoh plate, shouldn't it be a Johto plate?

There are no scattered plates in the Johto region; they must be obtained from the captain of the S.S. Aqua. When the captain talks about the plate in the game, he says it's a "strange thing obtained from the Sinnoh region" and then gives it to the protagonist in the Johto region.

If the plate was originally scattered in Sinnoh rather than Johto...

And considering that this thing is a very difficult item to collect, it is indeed extremely attractive to craftsmen.

『Mythical Artifact: Dragon Plate (Not Obtained)』

『Description: A Dragon-type plate that enhances the power of Dragon-type moves when held.』

『Can acquire unique craftsmanship and clues to the creation of mysterious artifacts.』

The thoughts gathering in his mind made Guangtai pause slightly, then he made up his mind—

"Um, can you give me a discount on the price of 20,000?"

Guangtai suddenly responded to Wang Luo, pulling the latter back to reality. Hearing the request for a further discount, Wang Luo couldn't help but scratch his face, revealing an embarrassed expression:

".Huh? This is a special item, you know. No matter what, it can increase the power of a Pokémon's corresponding type of move. The price of this kind of item is usually around this price, right?"

Guangtai naturally spread his hands: "If you give me a big discount, I can send you some items next time, how about that? I guarantee they'll be super effective and let you sell them for a higher price!"

"I'm a craftsman, it's okay to give me a little discount, right?"

Um... Wang Luo began to think, weighing the pros and cons, but he didn't think for too long. He directly agreed to Guangtai's request:

"What you said is right. As a merchant, I do have close ties with craftsmen. Okay, having one more craftsman acquaintance means I have one more sales channel for my materials. But if you have good stuff, please be sure to give me priority."

"Then I'll give you a 20% discount!"

Guangtai successfully obtained the Dragon Plate, and at the same time, Wang Luo began to take out other items from his bag.

Razor Claw, Bug-Repelling Grass, Wiki Berry, even Stealth Spray, some topical potions, some materials from Pokémon...

Evolution Stones - Ice Stone and Leaf Stone.

Guangtai's eyes suddenly narrowed, thinking that so that's how the Leaf Stone is marked in the Sinnoh ruins.

Also, a kind of blue and white beach radish.

"Um, that radish is very good, it can grow well in the Tundra," the old man in the mountains suddenly said, pointing to the blue and white radish: "He said that this was originally a root vegetable that grew on the beach, but after improvement, it can be planted in the Tundra. The taste is sweet and spicy, it's really wonderful."

"He promoted it to me, so I bought it, and now I'm sowing it."

Beach radish, although the appearance is very similar to "Ice Radish", they are actually two different crops.

"Eh ya eh ya, this is an important material that can survive in the north of Sinnoh, it is a specialty crop of Sinnoh. Sinnoh doesn't have this kind of crop, because it was improved more than a hundred years ago."

"But there are also very few people living in cold areas, and it seems that most areas are quite warm, so this radish is also difficult to promote. I am also very happy to be able to sell it in Sinnoh."

Wang Luo raised a finger, looking very happy. When talking about buying and selling goods, his joy seemed to be from the heart.

Guangtai also felt that this radish should be a very useful food. He remembered that this thing can be used to make Double Pickles, which will increase the damage dealt by Pokémon by 1.5 times for 5 turns after consumption!

Equivalent to raising both Attack and Special Attack by one level at the same time.

Sure enough, Wang Luo found himself staring at the beach radish and immediately began to promote it:

"You are very interested in this radish! Let me tell you a secret, the current people of Sinnoh don't know that this radish can be made into a special food. Just add Hard Stone, Rollout Bean, and Royal Herb, and use pickling techniques to make them into pickles, you can get a special food called 'Double Pickles', which will make Pokémon very powerful when eaten!"

"I also have some of these materials here, and the beach radish only needs 1000 Poké Dollars to get one. If you also buy seeds, the price can be 90% off!"

"Also, it takes two sets of ingredients to make one serving of Double Pickles."

1000 Poké Dollars... Guangtai remembered that the Ginkgo Guild sold radishes for 800 each.

Everything else is also sold more expensively!

I didn't expect that times have changed and prices have gone up.

"Stealth Spray, potions" Guangtai also chose some items needed for fieldwork, but the prices that Wang Luo was asking for the Razor Claw and the two Evolution Stones were ridiculously high.

Ice Stone 12000, Leaf Stone 10000, and Razor Claw 20000.

Guangtai carefully considered it and decided to only buy two Evolution Stones.

"Then thank you for your patronage!" Wang Luo sold the goods, his mood became cheerful, and the expression on his face became more and more happy, with a bright smile.

At this time, Guangtai put the things he bought into his backpack one by one.

The materials and crafts he bought caused a large amount of information to flood into his mind, making Guangtai's head ache slightly.

It was like a feeling of high mental concentration.

[Uncommon Material: Hard Stone]

Plus some strange materials from Pokémon that Guangtai bought. What "Bidoof's fur, Starly's feathers, Shinx's mane, Snover's fruit, Drifloon's hair, Gible's scales."

Doublade waved its blue ribbon on the side, constantly stuffing these items into Guangtai's large backpack.

The newest novels are first published on Six Nine Book Bar!

After that, all the information was about crafts and rare materials, but among the crafts, Stealth Spray and topical wound medicine were all bought from Wang Luo. Although they were unique items, they didn't have any special events or clues, only the same effects as in the game.

"The money I just earned is spent again!" Guangtai sighed helplessly.

『Mythical Artifact: Dragon Plate』

『Description: A Dragon-type plate that enhances the power of Dragon-type moves when held.』

『Acquire Professional Knowledge: 1』

『Dragon Tamer: Can improve the friendship with Dragon-type Pokémon.』

『Acquire Unique Craft: 1』

『Acquired clues for the creation of mysterious artifacts: 1』

Guangtai's heart suddenly froze.

Professional knowledge?

Dragon Tamer is indeed a profession that often appears in the Pokémon world. There are such professionals in various regions, and their inheritance locations are also different.

And what follows is the creation clue of an important craft?

When obtaining knowledge prompts, there was indeed a similar explanation that obtaining rare and precious materials would obtain corresponding craftsmanship, open up its unique craft route, and possibly obtain clues for the creation of some unique/valuable/mysterious crafts.

And this kind of plate is actually considered a craft rather than a material, because it can't be processed further, right?

Guangtai thought so, continuing to read the subsequent information content.
